what is the types of industrial compressors, write summary and work mehod of each type?
Solution Step by step. Thanks A motor car gas turbine unit has two centrifugal compressors in series giving an overall pressure ratio of 6/1. The air leaving the HP compressor passes through a heat exchanger before entering the combustion chamber. The expansion is in two turbine stages, the first stage driving the compressors and the second stage driving the car through gearing. The gases leaving the LP turbine pass through the heat exchanger before exhausting to the atmosphere. The HP turbine inlet temperature is 800 ?C and the air inlet temperature to the unit is 15 ?C. The isentropic efficiency of the compression is 0.8, and that of each turbine is 0.85; the mechanical efficiency of each shaft is 98 %. The heat exchanger thermal ratio may be assumed to be 0.65. Neglecting pressure losses and changes in kinetic energy, calculate: (i) the overall cycle efficiency; (ii) the power developed when the air mass flow is 0.7 kg/s; (iii) the specific fuel consumption when the calorific value…

A turbo-charged, 16 cylinder, Vee-type diesel engine has an air consumption 0f 3,000 kg/hr per cylinder at rated load and speed. This air is drawn in through a filter by a centrifugal compressor directly connected to the exhaust gas turbine. The temperature of the air from the compressor is 145°C before it goes to the engine suction header. Cooling water enters air cooler at 30°C and leaves at 38°C. Calculate the Arithmetic Mean Temperature Difference (AMTD). Show your complete solution.
